Examining isokinetic knee peak torque and time to peak torque as predictors of vertical jump height in division I men's basketball players. [PDF]

PLoS One
The vertical jump (VJ) is one of the most important movements for basketball athletes and therefore determining modifiable predictors of the VJ would aid substantially in crafting more effective training regimens. The purpose of this study was to determine if isokinetic quadriceps strength and torque predict VJ height and which characteristics and ...

Isokinetic Peak Torque in Young Wrestlers [PDF]

Pediatric Exercise Science, 1996
The purpose of the present study was to examine age-related changes in isokinetic leg flexion and extension peak torque (PT), PT/body weight (PT/BW), and PT/fat-free weight (PT/FFW) in young wrestlers. Male wrestlers (N = 108; age M ± SD = 11.3 ± 1.5 years) volunteered to be measured for peak torque at 30, 180, and 300° · s−1.

Evaluation of knee peak torque in athletic and sedentary children

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Abstract Objectives: We examined the influence of sex, level of activity, and pubertal status on knee extension (Ext) and flexion (Fl) peak torque (PT) in children using an allometric modeling approach. \r\nMethods: A total of 140 students (67 males, 73 females) aged 12/13 years were enrolled from a Hong Kong junior high school, whose curricula were ...

Handheld dynamometry: Validity and reliability of measuring hip joint rate of torque development and peak torque. [PDF]

PLoS One
Introduction Measuring rate of torque development (RTD) and peak torque (PT) for hip muscle performance presents challenges in clinical practice. This study investigated the construct validity of a handheld dynamometer (HHD) versus an isokinetic dynamometer (IKD), and intra-rater repeated reliability for RTD and PT and their relationship in hip joint ...

Patients with Subacromial Impingement Syndrome Exhibit Altered Shoulder Rotator Muscles Eccentric and Concentric Peak Torque [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation Sciences and Research, 2018
Background: Current conservative management of subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) involves generic strengthening exercises, especially for internal (IR) and external (ER) shoulder rotators. So far, no study has directly investigated the difference

Isometric force production parameters during normal and experimental low back pain conditions

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2005
Background The control of force and its between-trial variability are often taken as critical determinants of motor performance. Subjects performed isometric trunk flexion and extension forces without and with experiment pain to examine if pain yields ...

Stride-Phase Kinematic Parameters That Predict Peak Elbow Varus Torque

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: During baseball pitching, a high amount of elbow varus torque in the arm cocking-to-acceleration phase is thought to be a biomechanical risk factor for medial elbow pain and injury. The biomechanics of the stride phase may provide preparation
